An interesting, and scary, revelation coming out in the news today is that the intelligence tools the UK used to thwart the recent Airline Bomb Plot are legally out of reach of US law enforcement officials – and that includes the current NSA Terrorist Surveillance Program used to monitor our enemies overseas (and note when […]

I forgot that the US SC has allowed international mail to be opened without warrant or probable cause, as noted in this piece from the Enterprise Institute, which is dissects the amateurish opinion of Diggs Talyor: She also says that the surveillance violates the Fourth Amendment. But that provision only bans “unreasonable searches and seizures,” […]

Despite the heavy weight lawyers aligned against me, I predict the 6th circuit and the USSC will overturn Judge Diggins Talyor’s inept decision regarding the NSA’s ability to monitor our enemies. Recall the case is focused on whether the NSA can (a) monitor our enemies and (b) pass leads to the FBI. There is nothing […]

The Democrats and their media puppets have come down on a really catchy phrase for this year’s election: “Are we Safer?” The phrase is pregnant for possibilities – especially after the left has done all they can to make us unsafe! Number of attacks on US soil by Al Qaeda? Zero. That is pretty darn […]

Update Mac Ranger has details on the calm inside the administration and appeals in process. Michelle has the round up. – End Update Remember the UK Bomb Plot foiled last week?

The Dearborne Duo who were arrested for having 600 cell phones and $11,000 dollars in cash on them are rightfully suspect. First off, any college kids with $11,000 in cash have probably been doing something illegal. I myself have never had that much cash on me – maybe a tenth of that one time when […]

I was surprised to find a very rational and reasoned discussion of why the US must continue to gather intel and disperse leads to law enforcement in the manner we have been doing since we corrected a lot of quaint and dangerous legal theories after 9-11. This article in the New Republic explains well why […]

The Seattle Post Intelligencer is reporting again that financial monitoring, of the exact same kind exposed by the NY Times recently in a fit of Bush Derangement Syndrome as a ‘legal’ and ‘successful’ program, was key to exposing the plot details and the arrests. Investigators on three continents worked to fill in the full, frightening […]

Why would Sydney Blumenthal risk everything to publicize the fact he has been leaked – and is publicizing – classified information? The leftwing, anti-Israel sites are lapping this up. But my guess is Sydney just won himself an invite to a Grand Jury looking into leaks at the NSA: A report by columnist Sidney Blumenthal […]
